reversing imported MOV's

[gingerbreadgirl]

Does anyone know if or how I can import a small MOV into MX and play the clip backwards.

I am trying to keep file size down by using one movie to go forward and backwards. I tried reversing the frames like I would with a regular flash clip but that didnt work.

I just read something on that, I believe you just use something like:

_currentframe-1

Maybe get a total count first, gotoAndStop the last frame and then use gotoAndPlay(_currentframe-1); on a enterframe loop or button. It could get a little choppy, depending on your frame rate and processor speed.

Send me a link if you get it to work, I test everything on a 400 iMac G3. Yea, she's a slow old bird - but she does fine work.

If I think of where I read it I'll let you know.

OK. Thanks. I will try it out. I will for sure let you know if it works.
